Finding Bigfoot or finding sense?

Did anyone catch that whole “Finding
Bigfoot” show last night? Lord it was awful. I made it through
about 20 or so minutes before I hit the clicker.

Credit, though, still goes to Knox
County Mayor Tim Burchett for getting the folks here to film. As bad
as the show was (or is), it had some nice highlights of the area and
you really can't put enough dollar signs on free advertising.

Heck, ask the folks over at the
Knoxville Tourism and Sports Corporation (or whatever they're called
now). If officials there had brought the show to East Tennessee,
they'd be claiming a $10 gazillion economic impact for the area at
this point. That and they'd be cashing their bonuses checks.

Heh.

In the meantime, I did get a chuckle
last night. My wife walked in while the show was on. I tried to
explain to her what was happening. I said the woman on the show was
the skeptic, calling out the others (they're all guys) on the whole
Bigfoot thing.
